+The node collects information from the comment fields in spots (things
+like 'VIA EA7WA' or 'QSL-G1TLH') and stores these in a database.
+
+This command allows you to interrogate that database and if the callsign
+is found will display the manager(s) that people have spotted. This 
+information is NOT reliable, but it is normally reasonably accurate if
+it is spotted enough times.
+
+For example:-
+
+<tscreen><verb>
+  sh/dxqsl 4k9w
+</verb></tscreen>
+
+You can check the raw input spots yourself with:-
+
+<tscreen><verb>
+  sh/dx 4k9w qsl
+</verb></tscreen>
+
+This gives you more background information.
